It takes so long to hatch an egg in your Pokémon Diamond/Pearl game! What do you do? Go to wikiHow, of course!

Steps

1

Go to the Day Care (In Solaceon Town) and select an egg if the Day-Care Man has any. If not, get one out of your PC.

2

Grab a Pokémon that has the ability "Flame Body" or "Magma Armor".

3

Walk around until the egg hatches. It should take about 2-6 thousand steps.

Tips

When walking around to hatch the egg, use the bike on its fastest gear, unless that isn't possible for you at the moment. This works best if you move your character a few spaces to the right of the day care man so that you line up with the mud slick above you. Put your bike on high gear and just go up and down.

The original number you have to walk is varied by which species of Pokémon is in the egg. These abilities halve the amount of steps you have to walk.
